Today I am joined by Noël Ruth. Noël is a Mother, Poet, Author, Women's Circle Facilitator, and the Creator of Saga - a global web of Storytellers creating wholeness on Earth through writing, voice, lineage, and community. Noël guides women along the sacred writer path into elevated creative landscapes, where living words are born and will heal the world. She facilitates online writing circles, themed writing groups, and a Women Writer's Council where oracular storytelling is embodied and practiced with devotion in community. Noël is Mama to her firstborn daughter, Edda, who went back to the spirit realm shortly after birth, and Astraea, who was just born in June. She lives on a rural island off the coast of Maine, where she channels her own writings about the divine feminine, death, birth, life, land, and sea.
This conversation was truly one of the most the most rich and medicinal I have ever had. The landscapes she brings us to in her motherpath through both life and death is such a prayer I held for this space. Noël speaks to her freebirth and postpartum experience after the passing of her first daughter, her experience of communing with her wise spirit, receiving community support through this deathgate, the birth and postpartum of her daughter who chose to walk with her in life, and what it means to hold our men to protecting and tending to these sacred portals as mothers birthing culture.
